Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a conduction path facilitating handling of a shielded wire. <P>SOLUTION: The conduction path has a conductor 41 of a shielded wire 40 covered by an insulating core 42, and has a structure of exposing a shield layer 43 by covering the outer periphery of the core 42 by the cylindrical shielding layer 43. A corrugate tube 45 (a protective member) and a rubber boot 46 (a protective member) containing at least an exposed part of the shielding layer 43 of the shielded wire 40 are provided. Though the shielded wire 40 is not equipped with a sheath for protecting the shielding layer 43, the shielded wire 40 is protected by being housed in the corrugate tube 45 and the rubber boot 46. Since a sheath is eliminated from the shielded wire 40, the diameter and the weight of the shield wire 40 equivalent to that of the sheath is reduced, and flexural rigidity is lowered. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、シールド機能を備えた導電路に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
例えば電気自動車におけるインバータ装置やモータなどの機器間を接続する手段としてシールド機能を備えた導電路が用いられる。この種の導電路としては、シールド電線の導体の端部に電線側端子を固着し、その電線側端子を、機器のシールドケース内に設けた機器側端子に接続するとともに、シールド電線のシールド層を導電性の接続部材を介してシールドケースに接続するようにしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1を参照)。
【0003】
このシールド電線は、導体を絶縁性のコアで被覆するとともに、そのコアの外周に筒状のシールド層を被せ、更に、そのシールド層の外周を絶縁性合成樹脂製のシースで包囲した構造となっている。
【0004】
【特許文献1】
特開平11−26093号公報
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
シールド電線が電気自動車の動力線として使用される場合には、大電流に耐え得るように導体の径を太くする必要があり、その結果、シールド電線は外径が太くなり、重量が重くなり、曲げ剛性が高くなることは避けられない。
【0006】
しかしながら、このようなシールド電線では、配線やシールドケースとの接続作業などを行うに際して、取り扱い難く、作業性の低下を来たすという問題がある。
本願発明は上記事情に鑑みて創案され、シールド電線の取り扱いを容易にすることを目的としている。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1の発明は、シールド電線の導体の端部に電線側端子を固着し、その電線側端子を、機器のシールドケース内に設けた機器側端子に接続するとともに、前記シールド電線のシールド層を前記シールドケースに接続するようにしたものであって、前記シールド電線を、前記導体を絶縁性のコアで被覆するとともに、そのコアの外周に筒状の前記シールド層を被せることでそのシールド層を露出させた形態とし、そのシールド電線のうち少なくとも前記シールド層の露出部を収容する保護部材を設けた構成とした。
【0008】
請求項2の発明は、請求項1の発明において、前記電線側端子を電線側ハウジングに保持させるとともに、この電線側ハウジングを前記シールドケースに設けた取付孔に嵌合させた構成とした。
請求項3の発明は、請求項2の発明において、前記電線側ハウジングの外部において前記シールド層を導電性の接続部材に接続するとともに、その接続部材を前記シールドケースに取り付け、前記電線側ハウジングに前記コアを挿入するとともに、前記電線側ハウジングと前記コアとの間にシール部材を設けた構成とした。
【0009】
請求項4の発明は、請求項3の発明において、前記接続部材と前記電線側ハウジングとを仮係止する仮係止手段を設けた構成とした。
請求項5の発明は、請求項3又は請求項4の発明において、前記接続部材と前記電線側ハウジングを前記シールドケースに組み付けた状態では、前記接続部材が前記電線側ハウジングに対して組付け方向後方から当接する構成とした。
請求項6の発明は、請求項2乃至請求項5のいずれかの発明において、前記機器側端子を機器側ハウジングに保持させるとともに、この機器側ハウジングを前記取付孔内に設け、前記取付孔内において前記機器側ハウジングに前記電線側ハウジングを嵌合させることで前記機器側端子と前記電線側端子とを接続させる構成とした。
【0010】
【発明の作用及び効果】
[請求項1の発明]
シールド電線にはシールド層を保護するためのシースは設けられていないのであるが、シールド電線は保護部材内に収容されることによって保護される。このように本願発明によれば、シールド電線からシースをなくしたので、シースの分だけシールド電線が小径化及び軽量化されるとともに、曲げ剛性が低くなる。
[請求項2の発明]
電線側端子を電線側ハウジングに保持させ、その電線側ハウジングをシールドケースの取付孔に嵌合したことにより、電線側端子をシールドケース及び機器側端子に対して位置決めすることができ、双方の端子同士の接続に際して作業性が向上する。
【0011】
[請求項3の発明]
シールド電線の端末におけるシールド処理構造(シールド層と接続部材との接続構造)と、シールド電線と電線側ハウジングとの間の防水構造(コアと電線側ハウジングとの間にシール部材を設ける構造)とを、電線側ハウジングの外部と内部とに分けたので、これらの構造の簡素化が可能である。
[請求項4の発明]
接続部材と電線側ハウジングとを一体化させた状態で取り扱うことができるので、シールドケースに対する組付けなどの際の作業性がよくなる。
【0012】
[請求項5の発明]
接続部材が電線側ハウジングを抜け止めする手段を兼ねるので、電線側ハウジングを抜止めするための手段が不要となり、構造の簡素化が可能である。
[請求項6の発明]
機器側端子と電線側端子との接続は、機器側ハウジングと電線側ハウジングとを嵌合させるだけで済むので、端子同士を面倒なボルト締め作業によって接続する必要がなく、作業性に優れる。また、端子同士をボルト締めによって接続する場合には、ボルト締めの後で端子同士の接続部分に保護のためのカバーを被せる必要があるが、本発明によれば、双方の端子は取付孔の内部に収容された状態となるので、カバーを被せる必要もない。
【0013】
【発明の実施の形態】
[実施形態1]
以下、本発明を具体化した実施形態1を図1乃至図9を参照して説明する。
本実施形態のシールド機能を備えた導電路Aは、シールド電線40の導体41の端末部に電線側コネクタ50を接続したものであって、シールド電線40のシールド層43が機器10(例えば、電気自動車のインバータ装置)のシールドケース11に接続されるとともに、電線側コネクタ50の電線側端子70がシールドケース11内の機器側端子26に接続されるようになっている。
【0014】
機器10は、導電性のシールドケース11の内部に機器本体(図示せず)を収容するとともに、同じくシールドケース11内に、機器本体に接続された機器側コネクタ20を収容して構成される。シールドケース11の側壁上端部には、前後方向に貫通する左右3つの円形の取付孔12が一定ピッチで形成されている。シールドケース11の外面には、3つの取付孔12の開口領域及びその周縁領域を外側へ突出させた形態の膨出部13が形成されている。膨出部13の外周は平面と曲面を滑らかに連続させることによって比較的単純な形状(例えば、長円形、角が弧状に丸められた長方形、角が弧状に丸められた台形など)をなし、膨出部13の突出端面(図1及び図2における左端面)には、3つの取付孔12が開口されているとともに、各取付孔12に対して斜め下方に位置する3つの雌ネジ孔(図示せず)が開口されている。
【0015】
機器側コネクタ20は、合成樹脂製の機器側ハウジング21と3つの機器側端子26を備えている。機器側ハウジング21は、単一部品からなり、左右方向に細長い略長円形の連結部22と、この連結部22から前方(図1の左方)へ突出する左右3つの略円柱形をなす嵌合部23とからなる。連結部22には、その後端面から各嵌合部23と同軸状に後方へ突出する左右3つの筒部24が形成されているとともに、左右両端部から側方へ突出する左右一対の板状取付部25が形成されている。機器側ハウジング21の内部には、各嵌合部23及び各筒部24と対応する3つの機器側端子26がインサート成形により埋設されている。機器側端子26は、嵌合部23を前後に貫く端子本体27と、この端子本体27から前方に突出するとともに嵌合部23の前端部の嵌合凹部23F内に臨むタブ28と、端子本体27から後方へ突出して筒部24に臨む機器接続部29とからなり、機器接続部29には機器本体から延びたケーブル等の導電部材が接続される。また、各嵌合部23の外周にはシールリング30が装着されている。
【0016】
かかる機器側コネクタ20は、各嵌合部23を取付孔12に対してシールドケース11の内側から緊密に嵌合させるとともに、連結部22と板状取付部25をシールドケース11の内面に当接させた状態でシールドケース11に組み付けられ、板状取付部25のボルト孔25Hに貫通させたボルト(図示せず)によりシールドケース11に組み付けられる。組み付け状態では、各取付孔12内において、嵌合凹部23Fとその内部のタブ28が電線側コネクタ50及び電線側端子70との接続に備えて待機する。また、取付孔12と嵌合部23との隙間はシールリング30によって防水される。
【0017】
シールド電線40は、導体41の外周を絶縁性樹脂材からなるコア42で包囲し、そのコア42の外周に、金属細線をメッシュ状に編み込んだ筒状のシールド層43を被せるように設けて構成されており、シールド電線40はその全長に亘ってシールド層43が露出した状態となっている。シールド電線40の端末部においては、シールド層43の端部が短く切断されてコア42の端部が露出され、さらにそのコア42の端末部が除去されることによって導体41の端部が露出された状態となっている。シールド電線40は、3本一纏めに束ねられた状態で配索されている。
【0018】
かかるシールド電線40のうち端部を除いた大部分は、コルゲートチューブ45(本発明の構成要件である保護部材)内に挿通されるようになっている。さらに、シールド電線40の端部は、ゴムブーツ46(本発明の構成要件である保護部材)によって包囲されるようになっている。コルゲートチューブ45は、合成樹脂製であり、全体として円筒形の蛇腹状をなし、シールド電線40を内部に収容した状態でそのシールド電線40の配索経路に沿って柔軟に変形し得るようになっている。ゴムブーツ46は、全体として筒状をなすとともに前方に向かって幅広となる形状をなしている。ゴムブーツ46の前端部は、シールドケース11の膨出部13に外嵌される大径外嵌部47となっており、その内周には、周方向に延びるリップ部48が形成されている。一方、ゴムブーツ46の後端部は、コルゲートチューブ45の端部に外嵌される円形の小径外嵌部49となっており、その内周には、コルゲートチューブ45の外周形状に整合する凹凸部が形成されている。
【0019】
電線側コネクタ50は、電線側ハウジング51と、ブラケット60(本発明の構成要件である接続部材)と、電線側端子70とを備えて構成されている。電線側ハウジング51は、合成樹脂製であり、全体として概ね円筒状をなす。電線側ハウジング51の内部には、その前後両端面間に貫通される円形のキャビティ52が形成されており、このキャビティ52の前端部下面側には電線側端子70を抜止めするためのランス53が形成されている。電線側ハウジング51の外周後端部には、後方へ片持ち状に延出する3つの弾性係止片54(本発明の構成要件である仮係止手段)と、この弾性係止片54を内周側及び周方向両側から保護するように後方へ片持ち状に突出する3つの保護片55とが、夫々、周方向に間隔を空け且つ電線側ハウジング51の後端面よりも更に後方へ突出した形態で形成されている。電線側ハウジング51の外周に形成したシール溝56にはシール部材57が装着されている。
【0020】
ブラケット60は、金属等の導電性材料からなり、全体として概ね卵形の板状をなしている。ブラケット60には、キャビティ52よりも小径の円形をなす中心孔61が前後方向に貫通して形成されているとともに、この中心孔61に対して偏心した位置にボルト孔62が前後に貫通して形成されている。さらに、ブラケット60には、中心孔61と同心の円に沿った3つの係止孔63(本発明の構成要件である仮係止手段)が、上記弾性係止片54及び保護片55と対応するように形成されている。
【0021】
このブラケット60は、下敷きパイプ64とカシメリング65を介すことによりシールド電線40のシールド層43に対して導通可能に接続されている。即ち、シールド層43の前端部とコア42の外周との隙間には、その前方から導電性の下敷きパイプ64の後端部が差し込まれているとともに、シールド層43の前端部には導電性のカシメリング65が外嵌されていて、このカシメリング65を内周側へカシメ付けることにより、シールド層43の前端部が下敷きパイプ64とカシメリング65との間で挟圧された状態に固定されている。また、下敷きパイプ64は、予めブラケット60の中心孔61に対して前方から挿通されていて、前端部の鍔部64Fをブラケット60の前面に係止させることによりブラケット60に対する後方への抜けが規制されているとともに、中心孔61の内周に嵌合されることによりブラケット60に対する径方向の遊動が規制されている。そして、この下敷きパイプ64の前端部及び鍔部64Fがブラケット60の中心孔61の内周及び前面に当接することで、シールド層43が下敷きパイプ64を介してブラケット60に導通可能に接続される。尚、カシメリング65とそれよりも前方の領域及び後方の領域には、ゴムリング66が外嵌されている。
【0022】
電線側端子70は、全体として前後方向に細長く、その略前半部分には機器側端子26のタブ28に接続される概ね角筒状をなす機器接続部71が形成され、この機器接続部71の内部には弾性接触片72が設けられているとともに、機器接続部71の下面にはランス孔73が形成されている。一方、電線側端子70の略後半部分は電線圧着部74とされ、この電線圧着部74には、シールド電線40の導体41のうちコア42から露出した前端部が圧着により導通可能に接続されている。
【0023】
電線側コネクタ50は、次のようにして組み付けられる。
まず、ブラケット60の中心孔61に対して後方からシールド電線40を挿通させ、下敷きパイプ64とカシメリング65を介してシールド層43の前端部をブラケット60に接続する。次に、シールド電線40のコア42に対し前方からゴム製のシール部材58を外嵌し、そのシール部材58を下敷きパイプ64の鍔部64Fに当接させてブラケット60の前面に押し付ける。シール部材58はコア42の外周に対して摩擦により遊動規制されている。この後、シールド電線40の導体41の前端部に電線側端子70の電線圧着部74を固着する。以上により、シールド電線40の前端部に電線側端子70が接続される。
【0024】
次に、シールド電線40、ブラケット60及び電線側端子70を電線側ハウジング51に組み付ける。組み付けに際しては、電線側端子70を後方からキャビティ52に挿入する。正規位置まで深く挿入された電線側端子70は、その機器接続部71をキャビティ52の前面壁に当接させることで前止まりされるとともに、ランス孔73にランス53が係止するることにより抜止めされる。また、コア42に外嵌されているシール部材58はキャビティ52の後端部内周に密着し、これにより、キャビティ52の内周とコア42の外周との間が浸水規制状態にシールされる。
【0025】
電線側端子70をキャビティ52に挿入するのに伴い、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51に対して後方から接近し、ブラケット60の各係止孔63に、夫々、電線側ハウジング51の弾性係止片54及び保護片55が前方から貫通され、弾性係止片54の後端の係止爪54Aが係止孔63の外周側孔縁に対して後方から係止し、この弾性係止片54と係止孔63との係止により、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51に対して後方への離間が規制される。この係止状態では、ブラケット60の前面が電線側ハウジング51の後端面に対して後方から当接し、これにより、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51に対して前方へ相対変位することが規制される。つまり、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51に対して一体化された状態に係止される。この仮係止状態では、シール部材58が鍔部64Fとキャビティ52のストッパ52Sとの間で前後に挟み付けられ、そのシール部材58の弾性反発力によって鍔部64Fがブラケット60に押し付けられ、下敷きパイプ64とブラケット60とが確実に接触するようになる。
【0026】
電線側コネクタ50の組み付けた済んだら、3本のシールド電線40を俵積み状に束ねた状態でコルゲートチューブ45内に収容する。コルゲートチューブ45にはその長さ方向に沿った割溝(図示せず)が形成されており、この割り溝を拡げることによってシールド電線40を内部に収容することができる。また、ゴムブーツ46を3本のシールド電線40の端末部に被せるが、このとき、ゴムブーツ46はその後端部の小径外嵌部49を弾性的に拡開させつつ3つの電線側端子70を挿通させるようにすればよい。ゴムブーツ46の小径外嵌部49をコルゲートチューブ45の前端部に外嵌させることにより、コルゲートチューブ45とゴムブーツ46とが一体化されてシールド電線40をその全長に亘って包囲する。
【0027】
かかる電線側コネクタ50の電線側ハウジング51は、シールドケース11の各取付孔12に、夫々、嵌入される。取付孔12の内部では、予め機器側ハウジング21が待ち受けており、ブラケット60がシールドケース11の外面に当接する状態まで十分深く電線側ハウジング51が嵌入されると、その前端部が、機器側ハウジング21の嵌合凹部23Fに嵌合されるとともに、タブ28が電線側端子70の機器接続部71内に進入して弾性接触片72と弾性接触することで両端子26,70が導通可能に接続される。
【0028】
電線側ハウジング51を取付孔12に嵌入した状態では、ブラケット60のボルト孔62がシールドケース11の雌ネジ孔に整合しており、ボルト孔62に貫通したボルト69を雌ネジ孔に螺合して締め付けることにより、ブラケット60がシールドケース11の外壁面に対して導通可能に接続された状態で固定され、ひいては、シールド電線40のシールド層43がシールドケース11に対して導通可能に接続される。また、ブラケット60は電線側ハウジング51の後端面に当接しているので、電線側ハウジング51が取付孔12から外方(後方)へ抜け出すことが規制される。
【0029】
さらに、ゴムブーツ46の前端の大径外嵌部47をシールドケース11の膨出部13に外嵌させ、その外周にリップ部48を弾性接触させる。これにより、ブラケット60とシールド層43との間の接続部分が防水された状態となる。尚、取付孔12の内周と電線側ハウジング51の外周との間はシール部材57によって防水される。
上述のように本実施形態においては、シールド電線40にはシールド層43を保護するためのシースは設けられていないのであるが、シールド電線40の全長(シールド電線40のうち少なくともシールド層43の露出領域)をコルゲートチューブ45とゴムブーツ46内に収容して保護するようにしている。このように本実施形態によれば、シールド電線40からシースをなくすことが可能となっているので、シースの分だけシールド電線40が小径化及び軽量化されるとともに、曲げ剛性が低くすることが実現されている。
【0030】
また、電線側端子70を電線側ハウジング51に保持させ、その電線側ハウジング51をシールドケース11の取付孔12に嵌合したので、電線側端子70をシールドケース11及び機器側端子26に対して径方向及び前後方向において位置決めすることができるようになっており、これにより、双方の端子26,70同士の接続に際して作業性が向上している。
また、電線側ハウジング51の後方外部においてシールド層43をブラケット60に接続するとともに、そのブラケット60をシールドケース11に取り付け、電線側ハウジング51にコア42の前端部を挿入するとともに、電線側ハウジング51とコア42との間にシール部材58を設けた。つまり、シールド電線40の端末におけるシールド処理構造(シールド層43とブラケット60との接続構造)と、シールド電線40と電線側ハウジング51との間の防水構造(コア42と電線側ハウジング51との間にシール部材58を設ける構造)とを、電線側ハウジング51の外部と内部とに分けたので、これらの構造の簡素化が実現されている。
【0031】
また、ブラケット60と電線側ハウジング51とを仮係止する仮係止手段として弾性係止片54と係止孔63とを設けたので、ブラケット60と電線側ハウジング51とを一体化させた状態で取り扱うことができ、シールドケース11に対する組付けなどの際の作業性がよくなっている。
また、ブラケット60と電線側ハウジング51をシールドケース11に組み付けた状態では、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51に対して組付け方向後方から当接する構成とし、ブラケット60が電線側ハウジング51を抜け止めする手段を兼ねるようになっている。これにより、電線側ハウジング51を抜止めするための手段が不要となり、構造の簡素化が実現されている。
【0032】
また、機器側端子26を機器側ハウジング21に保持させるとともに、この機器側ハウジング21を取付孔12内に設け、取付孔12内において機器側ハウジング21に電線側ハウジング51を嵌合させることで機器側端子26と電線側端子70とを接続させるようにしたので、機器側端子26と電線側端子70との接続は、機器側ハウジング21と電線側ハウジング51とを嵌合させるだけで済むようになっている。したがって、端子26,70同士を面倒なボルト締め作業によって直接接続する必要がなく、作業性に優れている。また、端子同士をボルト締めによって接続する場合には、ボルト締めの後で端子同士の接続部分に保護のためのカバーを被せる必要があるが、本実施形態によれば、双方の端子26,70は取付孔12の内部に収容された状態となるので、保護のためのカバーを被せる必要もない。
【0033】
[他の実施形態]

【0034】
(2)上記実施形態では1つの電線側ハウジングに複数の電線側端子を収容したが、本発明によれば、各電線側端子を夫々別個の電線側ハウジングに収容し、各電線側ハウジングを独立した取付孔に嵌合させるようにしてもよい。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a conductive path having a shielding function.
[0002]

[0023]
The electric wire side connector 50 is assembled as follows.
First, the shielded electric wire 40 is inserted into the center hole 61 of the bracket 60 from behind, and the front end of the shield layer 43 is connected to the bracket 60 via the underlay pipe 64 and the caulking ring 65. Next, a rubber sealing member 58 is externally fitted to the core 42 of the shielded electric wire 40 from the front, and the sealing member 58 is brought into contact with the flange portion 64F of the underlaying pipe 64 and pressed against the front surface of the bracket 60. The seal member 58 is restricted from floating around the outer periphery of the core 42 by friction. Thereafter, the wire crimping portion 74 of the wire side terminal 70 is fixed to the front end of the conductor 41 of the shielded wire 40. As described above, the wire-side terminal 70 is connected to the front end of the shielded wire 40.
[0024]
Next, the shielded wire 40, the bracket 60 and the wire-side terminal 70 are assembled to the wire-side housing 51. When assembling, the wire-side terminal 70 is inserted into the cavity 52 from behind. The wire side terminal 70 inserted deeply to the proper position is stopped beforehand by bringing the device connecting portion 71 into contact with the front wall of the cavity 52, and is unplugged by the lance 53 being locked in the lance hole 73. Be stopped. In addition, the seal member 58 externally fitted to the core 42 is in close contact with the inner periphery of the rear end portion of the cavity 52, whereby the space between the inner periphery of the cavity 52 and the outer periphery of the core 42 is sealed in a water-restricted state.
[0025]
As the electric wire side terminal 70 is inserted into the cavity 52, the bracket 60 approaches the electric wire side housing 51 from the rear, and the elastic locking pieces of the electric wire side housing 51 are respectively inserted into the locking holes 63 of the bracket 60. 54 and the protection piece 55 are penetrated from the front, the locking claw 54A at the rear end of the elastic locking piece 54 is locked from the rear with respect to the outer peripheral side edge of the locking hole 63, and the elastic locking piece 54 By the engagement with the engagement hole 63, the rearward separation of the bracket 60 from the electric wire side housing 51 is regulated. In this locked state, the front surface of the bracket 60 abuts against the rear end surface of the electric wire side housing 51 from behind, thereby restricting the bracket 60 from being relatively displaced forward with respect to the electric wire side housing 51. That is, the bracket 60 is locked in an integrated state with the electric wire side housing 51. In this temporarily locked state, the seal member 58 is sandwiched between the flange portion 64F and the stopper 52S of the cavity 52 back and forth, and the elastic repulsive force of the seal member 58 pushes the flange portion 64F against the bracket 60, and The pipe 64 and the bracket 60 are surely in contact with each other.
[0026]
When the electric wire side connector 50 is assembled, the three shielded electric wires 40 are housed in the corrugated tube 45 in a state of being bundled in a bale stack. A split groove (not shown) is formed in the corrugated tube 45 along its length direction. By expanding the split groove, the shielded electric wire 40 can be housed inside. Further, the rubber boots 46 are put on the ends of the three shielded wires 40. At this time, the rubber boots 46 allow the three wire-side terminals 70 to pass therethrough while elastically expanding the small-diameter outer fitting portions 49 at the rear ends. What should I do? By externally fitting the small-diameter outer fitting portion 49 of the rubber boot 46 to the front end of the corrugated tube 45, the corrugated tube 45 and the rubber boot 46 are integrated, and surround the shielded electric wire 40 over its entire length.
[0027]
The wire-side housing 51 of the wire-side connector 50 is fitted into each of the mounting holes 12 of the shield case 11. Inside the mounting hole 12, the device-side housing 21 is waiting in advance, and when the wire-side housing 51 is inserted sufficiently deeply until the bracket 60 comes into contact with the outer surface of the shield case 11, the front end portion of the device-side housing 21 21 is fitted into the fitting recess 23F, and the tab 28 enters the device connecting portion 71 of the electric wire side terminal 70 and makes elastic contact with the elastic contact piece 72, so that the two terminals 26 and 70 are electrically connected. Is done.
[0028]
When the electric wire side housing 51 is fitted in the mounting hole 12, the bolt hole 62 of the bracket 60 is aligned with the female screw hole of the shield case 11, and the bolt 69 penetrating the bolt hole 62 is screwed into the female screw hole. By tightening, the bracket 60 is fixed in a state where it is conductively connected to the outer wall surface of the shield case 11, and the shield layer 43 of the shielded wire 40 is conductively connected to the shield case 11. . Further, since the bracket 60 is in contact with the rear end surface of the electric wire side housing 51, the electric wire side housing 51 is restricted from coming out (to the rear) from the mounting hole 12.
[0029]
Further, the large-diameter outer fitting portion 47 at the front end of the rubber boot 46 is externally fitted to the bulging portion 13 of the shield case 11, and the lip portion 48 is brought into elastic contact with the outer periphery thereof. Thereby, the connection between the bracket 60 and the shield layer 43 is in a waterproof state. The space between the inner periphery of the mounting hole 12 and the outer periphery of the electric wire side housing 51 is waterproofed by a seal member 57.
As described above, in the present embodiment, although the sheath for protecting the shield layer 43 is not provided on the shielded electric wire 40, the entire length of the shielded electric wire 40 (at least the exposed portion of the shield layer 43 of the shielded electric wire 40 is not exposed). Region) is accommodated in the corrugated tube 45 and the rubber boot 46 to protect it. As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to eliminate the sheath from the shielded electric wire 40. Therefore, the shielded electric wire 40 can be reduced in diameter and weight by the amount of the sheath, and the bending rigidity can be reduced. Has been realized.
[0030]
Further, since the wire-side terminal 70 is held by the wire-side housing 51 and the wire-side housing 51 is fitted into the mounting hole 12 of the shield case 11, the wire-side terminal 70 is held against the shield case 11 and the device-side terminal 26. Positioning can be performed in the radial direction and the front-back direction, thereby improving workability in connecting the two terminals 26 and 70 to each other.
In addition, the shield layer 43 is connected to the bracket 60 outside the wire-side housing 51 and the bracket 60 is attached to the shield case 11, and the front end of the core 42 is inserted into the wire-side housing 51. A seal member 58 is provided between the core and the core. In other words, the shield processing structure (the connection structure between the shield layer 43 and the bracket 60) at the end of the shielded wire 40 and the waterproof structure between the shielded wire 40 and the wire-side housing 51 (between the core 42 and the wire-side housing 51) (A structure in which a seal member 58 is provided) is divided into the outside and the inside of the electric wire side housing 51, so that the simplification of these structures is realized.
[0031]
Further, since the elastic locking piece 54 and the locking hole 63 are provided as temporary locking means for temporarily locking the bracket 60 and the electric wire side housing 51, the bracket 60 and the electric wire side housing 51 are integrated. And the workability in assembling to the shield case 11 is improved.
When the bracket 60 and the wire-side housing 51 are assembled to the shield case 11, the bracket 60 is configured to contact the wire-side housing 51 from the rear in the mounting direction, and the bracket 60 prevents the wire-side housing 51 from coming off. It also serves as a means. This eliminates the need for a means for retaining the electric wire side housing 51, thereby simplifying the structure.
[0032]
The device-side terminal 26 is held by the device-side housing 21, the device-side housing 21 is provided in the mounting hole 12, and the wire-side housing 51 is fitted into the device-side housing 21 in the mounting hole 12. Since the side terminal 26 and the electric wire side terminal 70 are connected, the connection between the device side terminal 26 and the electric wire side terminal 70 can be performed only by fitting the device side housing 21 and the electric wire side housing 51. Has become. Therefore, there is no need to directly connect the terminals 26 and 70 to each other by a troublesome bolting operation, and the workability is excellent. Further, when the terminals are connected by bolting, it is necessary to cover the connection between the terminals with a cover for protection after the bolting. According to the present embodiment, both terminals 26 and 70 are connected. Is housed inside the mounting hole 12, so that there is no need to cover it for protection.
